You might think I`m crazy but I`m serious

It`s better you know now

What I thought was happiness

Was only part-time bliss

You can take a bow

 

It was all just one big night out on the town

Riding in your limousine

We turned right, then I said wrong

Which brings us to a stop

As the light is changing

Oh my meter`s running so I got to go, now

 

Chorus:

It`s the pleasure principle, oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh

It`s the principle of pleasure, oh-oh

It`s the pleasure principle, oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh

 

It`s true you want to build your life on guarantees

Hey take a ride in a big yellow taxi

I`m not here to feed your insecurities

I wanted you to love me

This has become an all too familiar scene

It`s not the first time I`ve paid the fare

Where`d you get the idea of material possession?

Thank you for the ride nowhere

And oh my meter`s running, so I really have to go.

 

Repeat Chorus

 

I know what you mean to me

Baby this is nowhere

You what became between you and me

Human differential

It`s the principle of pleasure oh-oh oh oh oh

It`s the pleasure principle, principle

oh ohhhh ohhhh oh

 

You might say that I`m no good

I wouldn`t trust your looks, baby if I could

I got too many things I wanna do before I`m through

It`s the pleasure principle, it`s the pleasure principle,

It`s the pleasure principle

Baby you can hold me down, baby you can hold me down,

After all the love that we`ve been through

After all you put me through, love me, love me

It`s the pleasure principle, yeah yeah yeah yeah
